The Fat Bidin Film Club (Ep 19) - Michael Moore has a new film out? Really?

Zan and Aizyl is NOT reviewing Ant-Man! Instead, they are talking about Michael Moore and his documentary films. They are shocked to find out that he has a new film out called 'Where to Invade Next'. His last film was six years ago and nobody knew he was working on a new one.

A whole episode condemning the decision to suspend The Edge. Aiyo… who are the ones who should be investigated here?

ADVENTURES OF A KL-ITE IN AFGHANISTAN (A GRAPHIC NOVEL)

'Adventures of a KL-ite in Afghanistan' is one of the many retellings of Zan Azlee's travels in Afghanistan. He is a multimedia journalist who has been to many conflict zones including Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, Turkey and Southern Thailand. Nevertheless, he still cowers like a coward when he hears gunfire!

Zan was keen to find out more about the war-torn country, and what it might be like to be there. Armed with only his camera gear and an open mind, he travels to Afghanistan with no idea what he is getting himself to. He ends up meeting many interesting figures, visits several 'tourist spots', and even gets embedded with the Malaysian army in Afghanistan.

Illustrated by Arif Rafhan Othman.
